Last week my Cousin, Angela Schipper, passed away unexpectedly in her sleep - so there's been a very sad cloud in our lives since. Angie was disabled from birth and has had many different issues since but was altogether healthy when she died... so its a very hard thing to understand for our family these days.
At the funeral, a lot of Angela's friends from the Harbor House (where she lives with other disabled adults) came to the service. It was a very cool experience to spend the service mourning with people who looked different, acted different, talked different. They don't necessarily stay quiet:) but we could all be in the same room and mourn the loss of someone special together. i thought this was a unique picture of what she was able to do in her life - bring together people despite disability to live, interact, smile & cry even though we are different.
here are some recent pictures
Isaac somehow figured out that lotion goes on his face
